RIP Polyvore

Sunday, April 08, 2018

As some of you may or may not know, Polyvore (popular for its virtual mood board function) was recently acquired by SSENSE, much to the internet's disdain. Polyvore was immediately shut down with no warning whatsoever, which is why everyone is realmad about the whole thing.

If you have a Polyvore account, the site gives you the option of downloading all the sets you've created among other things such as comments and likes. I'm glad they're offering this because it would've been gutting if Polyvore had just disappeared out of the blue and took all our hard work along with it. It's still not ideal - many people will lose contact with friends they've met on the site and from what it seems, our perfectly curated collections are a goner. BUT it's something, I guess.

So to celebrate Polyvore's long and fruitful life, I wanted to show you guys some of the sets I've created during my time on Polyvore.com.
